More than 12 hours after a Muslim family was struck by a truck in London on June 6, 2021, their accused killer sat shivering in a police interrogation room, telling a detective he didn’t have particularly strong connections with anyone. The police video was shown Monday at the murder-terror trial of Nathaniel Veltman in an Ontario court in Windsor.

This part is a little disturbing:

In the footage, the accused says, “I would say I didn’t feel like I had much to lose at all. If I did, I wouldn’t have done it because there would have been someone else, but I didn’t have much to lose.”

Veltman said he spent a lot of time on the internet doing “research” about what he called media dishonesty and the role of Western governments in covering up crimes committed by minorities against white people. Even online, the accused said, he didn’t interact with people who shared his views because he was worried about being put on a government watch list.

People like that should really join Lemmy and learn how research and discourse is actually effectively done. Not to say its always bulletproof or we’re not probe to our particular biases, but this horseshit+pisspoor bastardization of the idea of researching something used by right-wing dickheads “just asking [retarded loaded] questions” needs to stop.

Its getting people killed and radicalized to a side that literalky could not give two shits about them and will discard them economicalky and politically at the leveraged buyout of a hat.

Exactly. Doing your own research gets you nowhere if the only websites you know are 8chan and the like.

They need stochastic punches in the face after they have been reasoned with and fail to reevaluate
